Chapter Two: Module Intro -- Graphing & Slopes

This module discusses the concepts of graphing, slopes, scarcity, and
production possibilities frontiers. Economics uses charting tools
heavily in order to convey and explain concepts. Therefore, it is
important to be able to understand and interpret graphs, and calculate
slopes.

Economics deals with scarce goods and services. Because of scarcity,
every decision that we make has a cost. We model this cost in a
production possibilities frontier.
